NEW REVIEWS
 
I received a new review for NEVER A BRIDE, Book 11: Adventures in Amethyst Series (in Adventures in Amethyst Trio of Holiday Romances):
4 Stars! "In NEVER A BRIDE, Charlize coming back into his life was the best thing to ever happen to Ben. (And for Charlize.) I enjoyed this story very much. Just a hint of danger kept things interesting. I kept reading long past my bedtime to see what would happen next." ~Huntress Reviews
 
I received a new review for UNLUCKY IN LOVE, Book 12: Adventures in Amethyst Series (in Adventures in Amethyst Trio of Holiday Romances):
“Layla and Adam both rush back to Amethyst, determined to break up the new love interests their former girlfriend/boyfriend have. Instead, the author, in her devious way, pushes Layla and Adam together by making the weather extremely wintery and ensuring that there is only one cabin for rent in the area, so they must share it. The pair do a lot of talking, comparing, and soul searching. I enjoyed watching them bond, realize and accept their faults, and commit to some changes. Worth your time and money.” ~Huntress Reviews
 
I received a new review for SHOTGUN WEDDING, Book 13: Adventures in Amethyst Series (in Adventures in Amethyst Trio of Holiday Romances):
5 Stars! “Of the three stories in the Adventures in Amethyst Trio of Holiday Romances collection, SHOTGUN WEDDING is my favorite. The author manages to convey what each character is going through. The emotions really hit home to me. Many readers will feel an instant connection to Eden since she deals with battling her weight and low self-esteem. All of us have felt that way at some time or another in our lives. The author even shows how the actions of adults can affect the children. This is a wonderful tale of love, uncertainty, remorse, and people striving to do better. Fantastic!” ~Huntress Reviews
 
I received a new review for ADVENTURES IN AMETHYST TRIO OF HOLIDAY ROMANCES:
 “I read the Adventures in Amethyst Trio of Holiday Romances collection--including NEVER A BRIDE (Book 11), UNLUCKY IN LOVE (Book 12), and SHOTGUN WEDDING (Book 13)--back-to-back since these books are interconnected. While each story stands alone, readers don’t have to read them all to fully enjoy. However, if you read all three, I believe you’ll feel more satisfied. There is very little from this author that I haven’t fully enjoyed. Karen Wiesner is a terrific storyteller who’s able to show the reader all the inner turmoil her main characters experience.” ~Huntress Reviews
